I’m running the Guard’s Gloves at mythic, and although I keep making matches of 5, I can’t get my crit chance up past 80% (with Merc). We almost didn’t beat our XX dragon. ---

If they are going to make changes like this in the future and permanent, then I am very glad this was released as a stealth test “bug” before I start crafting gear with the Follower rework. Once I start crafting my end game set, a major change to combat like this would have me livid. ---

I doubt very much that this is intentional; there’s no reason to make our builds less optimal. ---

The critical hit chance is there but you don’t see it a lot ![1000001860](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/puzzlequest3/original/2X/2/2e19526f2470a117bde99f5c3e394c78b326f072.jpeg) ---

Exactly! Most of the bugs lately feel as it they are, “let’s see if they notice”. I spent the last month spending gems, upgrading gear specifically for builds at the end game. Now, if this change stays, time and money was wasted. ---

It would only be intentional if the goal was to make the builds less optimal so players need to spend more to make other builds. ---

**It is not in the patch notes** , so it should be treated as a bug and remedied. Going forward I think an 80% crit cap is a bad thing for the game, without other **major tweaks to the damage equation**. There are many encounters that enemies have been tuned around the current damage output. (see the thread about enemy spell damage). Our PvE opponents already exceed the 80% block chance cap at the highest levels, to the point that you can expect any un-stunned opponent to block. Lastly, there is a history of bugs that the dev team has created with respect to properly applying bonuses: (_i.e. warlock ultimate bug, wither stacking, power increasing spell multiplier, etc._). So, I am selfishly hoping we maintain 100%+ crit chance as an option so I do not have to do all of the math to validate every patch whether or not something got messed up, or if the game is intentionally breaking its own rules. If I have a crit chance of 100% or greater and I don’t crit then I know there is a bug. If it is 80% capped I have to keep track to make sure there is no bad math happening. I really don’t like being an unpaid QA tester every patch. ---

It took a little longer than normal to get this together, as I wanted to ensure I had as much information as possible from your responses and asked the team my own questions. Also getting a response written from the team, so big thanks to our Producer Morgs for putting this together for me. Capping Critical Hit Chance to 80% Why did we do it?
